If the user is registered on your wiki specifically, you can delete them from the admin page XWiki.XWikiUsers. If they are registered on xwiki.com, maybe an xwiki.com admin (of which a number are active on this mailing list) can help - what's the offending user name? Does this mean spambots have figured out how to register on xwiki.com? In the long run we might need one of those twisted text image human-verification things. :) Regards, Robin.

Hi Robin, yes, the spam came for a registered user unfortunately... Do you know if there is a moderator who could do something about it, such as close his account or something? Thanks again! Carine

Hi,
To ensure only registered users can edit or add comments, go to 'More Actions' -> 'XWiki Access Rights', then set: * Groups: XWiki.XWikiAllGroup, xwiki:XWiki.XWikiAllGroup * Users: * Access Levels: edit, comment * Allow/Deny: Allow
XWiki.XWikiAllGroup represents all users registered on your wiki. xwiki:XWiki.XWikiAllGroup represents all users registered on xwiki.com
Then do save access rights.
But I thought this was the default for wikis on xwiki.com now. Is the comment spam coming from a registered user?
If you have defined a group of your own, you can restrict to XWiki.YourGroup instead of XWiki.XWikiAllGroup.
Regards, Robin.

I just opened an account on xwiki and a wiki, and found an unknown user who posted thousands of links to pron websites. How to prevent that? How to make the wiki available only to a specific group? THanks
